Who is calling the fleet?

"Human beings have limits after all......."———— classic quote from JoJo.

Anyone who knows a little about fitness can understand that the physique of people really can't be generalized. Like those who don't exercise regularly, although they don't look much different from others in appearance, when it comes to physical functions, the difference between the two is not half a star.

However, even if they are all muscular hunks in the gym, there are still differences between tall, short, fat and thin, endurance and resistance under various factors such as genes, environment, and nutrition.

This also makes it possible to divide the weight of competitive competitions such as fighting. Because the gap between the two physical fitness is too big.

In layman's terms, it's like the difference between a child and an adult. If you fight across levels, you may not only be unable to break through the defense, but will also hurt yourself. And the other party, maybe it only takes one chance to knock you out!

Also, don't just think that the other party is a big "big guy" and think that the other party is slow. In fact, it is very likely that he is more agile than you, faster than you, and far more powerful than you.

Since there is such a big gap between ordinary people, how much stronger is the Astarte Space Marine, as a demigod, compared to ordinary people?

In the world of Warhammer, if you want to change from a mortal to an Astarte Space Marine, you first need to survive a few years and up to 19 transformation surgeries. At the same time, the success rate of the surgery is very low.

Usually, people who undergo modification will stay at a certain stage because of various adverse reactions of the human body. Even in severe cases, it will directly turn into a deformed monster that has lost its mind. But for the survival of the human empire, this price is really nothing.

Prior to the modification procedure, the pre-selected person is implanted with a genetic seed, as well as injected with a special drug that stabilizes the genetic seed. This will reshape the body's cells and genetic information as a whole, allowing the body to better adapt to the multiple surgeries that follow.

But for some reason, this genetic seed, developed by the emperor himself, is always stimulated in various ways to start its work, which is one of the reasons why the success rate of Astarte's transformation surgery is not high.

At the same time, because of the characteristics of the genetic seed, and in order to ensure the success of the operation as much as possible. Genetic seeds can only be implanted in men, usually men who are in their teenage years.

Therefore, 10~14 years old is basically the golden period of surgery recognized by the war group. The older you are thereafter, the higher the mortality rate of the surgery.

The boys, who are then implanted with genetic seeds to obtain some of the genetic powers, genetic diseases and combat memories, will undergo a series of staged surgeries with extremely strict procedures.

The first is the implantation of a second heart, which will greatly enhance the body's blood circulation and replace it to maintain bodily functions when the original heart is damaged. At the same time, the implanted second heart can also provide additional assistance such as adrenaline when Astarte needs it.

The second stage is the strengthening of bones. Through various drugs, the bones are allowed to absorb metal or ceramic compounds, which greatly strengthen the bones. Partially activated metal is placed on top of the main long bones, causing them to begin to grow towards a gigantic size. In addition, the ribs on the chest merge into a bone deck that resembles a lobster's shell.

The third stage is the strengthening of muscles. The fourth stage is the blood regeneration organ.

The fifth stage is the implantation of Laryman's organs. This vessel-filled organ, the size of a golf ball, will be implanted into the chest cavity to integrate with the body's circulatory system. Whenever it was injured, it quickly secreted Laryman cells, which quickly scarred and healed, making it difficult for Astarte to die of blood loss.

The sixth stage is ganglion implantation. It allows Astarte to sleep with his brain and stay awake at all times, even in high-intensity combat, like a tireless warrior, ensuring long-lasting combat capability.

The seventh stage is implantation of the preset stomach, which is not used to digest food, but to screen out various toxins in food and neutralize them. If it is really irreconcilable, the preset stomach secretes a substance that envelops it and then expels it through vomiting.

Eighth, genetic testing for neural implantation. Astarte is able to devour the flesh and blood of his enemies in order to gain access to some of their memories and natural abilities. This is also the reason why some Astartes, after the surgery, suddenly have a thirst for flesh.

Ninth, implant multiple lungs. Its main function is to filter harmful components from the air and improve the amount of oxygen obtained, etc. Like any poisonous gas, the hypoxic environment, are ineffective against Astarte.

Tenth, visual control organ implantation. Eleventh, the Ear of Lyman. Twelfth, Suan meninges. To put it simply, it is to enter a state of suspended animation when seriously injured, and it can maintain immortality for hundreds of years.

Thirteenth, pigment control ball. It can secrete various body surface pigments to protect against radiation and light in various environments.

Fourteenth, pebble kidneys. Fifteenth, taste detection nerves. Sixteenth, sweat glands improve organs. It helps Astarte to resist high and low temperatures, even for short periods of time.

Seventeenth, salivary glands. It can secrete a corrosive toxin similar to it, and can easily bite off iron chains when trapped.

Eighteenth, gene depository glands. There are generally two glands, one located in the neck and one deep in the ribcage. On weekdays, it grows and absorbs the genetic material produced in Astarte's body, and gradually grows into a genetic seed for cultivating new recruits. This is an important part of the survival of the Astarte Warband, as it is the only way to produce genetic seeds. Of course, there is also a certain amount of variation in each genetic seed.

Stage 19, Black Carapace. It is the final step in the implantation of the skin, and it is the key to Astarte's perfect mastery of the power armor! Without the aid of the black carapace, the bulky power armor may not only not be able to help as it should, but will also become a burden to Astarte.

In addition, the hero-level original cast Astarte has added three additional surgeries on this basis. They are Tempered Skin (increases offense and defense), Ode to the Virgin (strengthens the functions of many strengthened organs such as the left and right brains and muscles), and Belisarius's Furnace (near death eruption, Musou mowing the grass, and can also effectively fight against psionic energy and mind control).

The above is the difference between Astarte and mortals.

Now, with the addition of Tyranid medical technology, this transformation operation has obviously become much easier and faster.............

In the dimly lit operating room, a muscular and strong body opened its eyes. The mechanical god cult personnel who presided over the completion of the operation next to him hurriedly congratulated him.

"Congratulations, you've completed all the remodeling surgeries and officially become an Astarte recruit. Now, we're going to put on the Power Armor for you. After that, someone will take you to the warband to report for duty.

As a passionate BGM sounded, the domineering power armor was also neatly worn on the Astarte recruit. The heavy ceramic steel armor reflects the cold light, and with the tall figure, it is simply full of explosive power!

A priest of the Divine Technique, holding a helmet, approached and handed it over.

"Put it on, and you're a real Astarte from now on!"

but the next second. The Astarte recruit didn't take the helmet, but said bluntly, "Wear a helmet? That will only seal my handsome appearance!"

What?"

Before the other party could finish his speech, the Astarte recruit continued.

"Okay, I'm not going to report to any warband. I've got my own warband! Thank you for the remodeling, I'll go first. After

speaking, he walked out of the door with a click, and none of the people present dared to stop him.

After he left, the Priest of the Skill God looked at the subordinate who was presiding over the operation and asked speechlessly.

"What's his name? Where did you find the stunned green man? How dare you pick up our wool?"

"My lord, he said that he was a soldier of the Astral Army who came to help 'make screws', it seems to be called.......... John.

"John, right? Very well! Immediately inform the Astarte Warband, and get this guy named John back for me!"

"Ahh
